Scope and Contents

The collection contains the user manual and correspondence for the purchase of a Lindstrand Comparator. A comparator performs a manual collation of printed editions of texts. The Lindstrand Comparator is used to find and identify differences in printed editions of texts by allowing one to view two different pages simultaneously, with each image being fed to only one eye at a time through a series of mirrors.
